eyes spanned the nightscape of the Emerald City.
“Real nice, isn’t it?”
“Yes.” She laughed, a hesitant sound, but a laugh nonetheless. A wave of cool air brushed over them and she shivered slightly. Gavin removed his jacket and draped it over her shoulders, and she turned to look at him, brown eyes sparkling. “Thank you.”
“My pleasure.” His thumb brushed the hair at her temple. “Absolutely beautiful.”
A sultry expression came into her eyes. “Are you talking about the view or me?”
“Definitely you,” Gavin replied, without a hint of hesitation. The arm circling her waist pulled her tighter against him, compelling her to press into his heated groin. Bringing his mouth closer to hers, Gavin said, “I probably shouldn’t tell you this, but I looked forward to tonight with a ridiculous amount of anticipation, and I haven’t been able to stop looking at you all night.”
“What are you going to do about it?” she whispered, tilting her head back.
The invitation was unmistakable, and Gavin dipped his head to taste her mouth. Finally. Her soft lips yielded to him right away, and the arm circling her waist tightened, pressing her more firmly against him. Gavin deepened the kiss, dragging sweetness from her soft lips, the honeyed caress of mouth to mouth causing desire to swell in his groin.
Without thought to the environment or the public spectacle they might make, he marched her backward into the wall—keeping their lips sealed together. Terri kissed him back as if she couldn’t get enough—her mouth pliable and intoxicating, generously giving as much as she took.
Gavin grabbed a handful of hair and forced her mouth wide, overwhelmed by the need to claim her, to seize every ounce of pleasure offered by the soft curves pressed into his hardening body. He thrust his tongue between her lips, imagining another part of his anatomy sliding into the moist opening.
The kiss ended when she tore her mouth from his. Wide-eyed, she stared up at him, breasts heaving in a captivating display of arousal. She must feel it too—the out-of-control desire that overtook his brain and made him want to lift her against the wall to feed the hunger she unleashed with only a kiss.
The tip of her tongue dragged across her swollen lips, and Gavin’s eyes followed the movement. He groaned inwardly at the tempting moisture left behind.
“I want to spend the night with you,” he rasped.
A knowing smile slid across her mouth. A more in-control Terri dragged a finger down his chest to his waist, leaving a line of heat in the wake of her caress. A come-hither look invaded her eyes, and she teased him with a flirty glance from beneath her lashes. “I want to spend the night with you, too.”
His heart almost came through his chest, but Gavin tamped down the jubilation and kept a cool head. “I hear a ‘but’ in that sentence.”
Terri tilted her face up to his, eyes soft and inviting under the lights of the deck. “What are your expectations?”
He braced his hands on the wall and barricaded her in. “I don’t expect anything. We’re both just looking for a good time, right?”
“And if I say no?” she asked, keeping her voice soft.
Gavin swallowed, shunning the ugly face of disappointment that crept into the conversation. “I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t be disappointed.” He wanted to get closer. He wanted to get in her.
“I wouldn’t want you to be disappointed,” she cooed.
“I wouldn’t want to be disappointed.”
Gavin waited for her response. Seconds dragged by, slower than molasses on an upward sloping gradient.
Finally, Terri brought her face very close to his. The teasing light disappeared from her eyes. “Then let’s go.” Her breath brushed his lips, and the muscles in his arms tightened to rigid bands.
She took his hand and they walked away from the wall, toward the interior of the building. But despite the anticipation of finally getting between those thick thighs,
